This qualification is designed for those seeking to become Allied Health Assistants in the aged care, disability, and other health sectors. The program prepares new workers to provide assistance to Allied Health Professionals (AHP) under their supervision and delegation, which may take the form of direct, indirect, or remote supervision.
To successfully complete the qualification, candidates must fulfil a practical requirement of at least 120 hours of clinical placement, as outlined in the Assessment Requirements of the relevant units of competency. At least 60% of this work must be carried out in an allied health workplace. The remaining 40% may be carried out in a simulated environment if an allied health workplace is unavailable. The clinical placement provides valuable hands-on experience in a clinical setting, enabling students to develop the skills and knowledge necessary to become effective Allied Health Assistants.
Upon completion of the program, students will have the foundational knowledge and practical experience to pursue a career as an Allied Health Assistant. They will be equipped with the skills to support Allied Health Professionals in delivering high-quality care to patients in a range of community and healthcare settings.
